Description

Coaster features an image of an oil painting by N.C. Wyeth, entitled “Troops by the Hundred Were Passing.” It appeared as an illustration in a book about the American Civil War, “Sally Castleton, Southerner,” by Crittenden Marriott, and also as a feature in “Everybody’s Magazine” in 1912. Wyeth, a close friend of Chris Sanderson, gave the painting as a gift to Chris’s mother, Hanna. It hangs on the wall in the Battlefield Room of the Christian Sanderson Museum.
